Harvest fresh basil, oregano, chives and cilantro anytime with easy herb planters like these. I started growing herbs this year, and I absolutely love the convenience of having herbs at my disposal. Grow them indoors worry-free using containers with drainage like the ones in photos 1, 2 and 4. Roots won't rot from sitting in water.

Herb garden kits like the ones in photos 1 and 3 also make great gifts. In addition to the pretty containers, they include seeds and instructions.
